    All I can think was that the last thing he experienced was sleeping on my chest and he never woke up again. Not that it makes it any easier for me but he did not have the anguish of knowing what he went through

    I found out yesterday that the crematory that is handling Harry's ashes did not take a paw print. Given that he was so young that was something I really wanted but won't be able to have...

    Oh, I'm sorry.
    I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
    Death thought about it.
    CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.

    Awww - that's too bad, Cheryl. Of all my RB pets that I've had cremated over the years, I have only Myndi's paw print. I was never even aware that they did this until I read it on their website, and you have to ask that this be done, since there is an extra charge for it. By the time I found out that they can do this, only Myndi was left. But at least I have the ashes of all my furkids.

    Hope that you are starting to feel better. It's tough.........

    We know he left deep paw prints on your heart, though. That will have to suffice.

    I know you are right Karen, but it still doesn't make it any easier and there is nothing I can do about it after the fact.

    It has been almost exactly one week since Harry passed over the Bridge. He left me at 2:15 PM EST on Tuesday Jan 6, 2015. While the tears are not quite as bad as before they are still there. I think the other guys know that something is wrong. Especially the first few days I would wake up with cats curled up against me on both sides of my body so I couldn't even move.

    I'm so sorry to read about baby Harry's passing! He sounds like a little fighter who just had to face an illness that was stronger in the end.

    His story reminds me a little of our Purzel who went to the rainbow bridge two nights before Christmas, even though he didn't have seizures. I can see the two of them playing at the Bridge now, happy and healthy.

    RIP, little Harry!
